Predictor’s Game

Originally from England, Cricket is now popular in over 100 countries. How 100 other countries understood the rules is still anyone’s guess, but we digress…

Most of Cricket’s fans and bettors live in England, Australia, India, and Pakistan. Cricket betting is intense – almost as intense as the games and highly intense during any of the top names given countries playing with each other in any match or any cricket match series.  Interestingly, cricket betting is more found to be taken place in countries like India and Pakistan where it’s illegal. England and Australia have relaxed rules toward betting on cricket matches, yet cricket betting is a pale shadow to its Asian neighbours. However, like most sports, all countries where it’s legal deny betting to anyone with direct involvement in the game.

Like in most cases where sport betting is illegal or undefined, bookies and online gambling sites step up to the plate ready to take anyone’s cricket bet. For bookies in India, the rewards on illegal bets are great and the risk is relatively low. Pay a small fine (usually gained from taking bets) and you’re on your way out of the jail. Legalization is currently being discussed in India, but it’s still a far way off. Pakistan currently has little hope to legalizing cricket bets due to the religious beliefs of its citizens.

Regardless of how you bet on cricket, the format is pretty simple. Cricket betting odds are usually given in fractional odds (sometimes known as British odds). For example, take the current CW Tri series going between India- Australia- Sri Lanka. The betters have  4/1 odds for Australia to win. This means you will win Rs.100 for every Rs25 you bet . On the other hand, Sri Lanka’s odds are 1/4 to win this series against mighty Australia so it gives you Rs.25 for every Rs.100 you put on. In these cases, odds are given in positive and negative currency amounts.  According to latest news the match between India and Australia which India won had given a great blow to the betteors and betting industry. Report loss was more than Rs150 crores.

As expected, the winning team of the match is the most common bet. The  World Cup and  any series between two top teams is always liked by betters to bet upon.

People now days not only bet on their team wining or losing they even bet on who’ll win the toss, the match outcome (predicting the points), the top scorer, or even the Man (or Woman) of the Match and at what score the particular player would get out.

From past few matches for India all outside tournaments have gone really bad. They have finished on losing side, but bookies have always bet on Tendulkar’s 100ton.

Betting in India is illegal but still its been done all over country even though there are strict rules to curb it and stop these events to take place but punters and bookies they always find a better way to hide and successfully operate their task from the local cops or the special forces.

Today everyone is involved in illegal betting, saate baazi or as I say “it’s the best game for the predictors the predictor's game”, from small business man to big tycoons, from politicians to police persons, from college students to autorikshawala’s . Everyone is involved in big or small betting gamble.

But very few know that this is the one game which gives one a luxuries life in hours and days but it takes back everything in merely a minute.

This game(at least in India) will never  finish, will never end but yes it will end you one day.

Colourful Navratri

The 9nights festival of Navratri begins on the first day of Ashwina of the bright fortnigh Seeds are sown, sprouting is watched, the planets are consecrated, and on the 8th and 9th days, Goddess Durga,  Vijayashtami and Mahanavami are worshipped.

Navratri in India is a festival involving celebrating the various avatars of a deity. 

In Gujrat it is accompanied with dandiya and large parts of Kolkata shutdown in for Durga Puja.

In Mumbai, we see both of them, accompanied with a city-wide colour co-ordination among women. As a result city of this city-wide colour code, women all around the city look like they are part of some campaign.

In Delhi at various places the Durga puja is done and dandiya nights or dj nights are arranged by various clubs, Jagrata's are there Mata Ki Chowki's are done.

Overall 9days Navratri are full Celebrating days, Days full of enjoyment, dance, singing and all Mata Ki Bhakti.

The day after Navratri i.e the 10th day Ashwina, is Dussera which celebrated thevictory of lord Rama over Ravana. Ravana is burnt in effigy, often giant dummies of Ravana stuffed with fireworkers are shot with arrows until they blow up before a large, applauding audience.

Problem faced by Modern Teenagers

The Youth of today faces a lot of problem from Peer Pressure   to Generation gap, workload or suicidal tendencies.
The youth is always told to change their views about life from the elders. Even if they are right then also are asked to be quit.
It's the teenagers who are confused, they are forced to fulfill the dreams of their parents and when they can't handle the Pressure they get indulge in bad activity like Drugs, smoking, alcohol and some decide to end their life.
Today's world is very competitive, student need to study hard and even then after scoring good mrks they face many problems in getting admissions to good colleges and in college they have problem like ofRagging.
And then the biggest problem is in getting good jobs right job(problem of unemployment).
In today's time Modern Teenagers are facing lot of problems instead of pointing out mistakes, adult's need to guide them and understand them to make their life a good and healthy one.

Use of Camera

With my Camera I love to click pictures, especially of the Nature.
Here in this drawing, there is a boy who's capturing a picture of plant from his mobile.
Well, this image reminds me of my childhood time, like how I used to click pictures with my mobile's VGA camera. I used to click everything and anything what I loved. Especially when its something related to nature.
When i was young I didn't have my own mobile, I used to take my father's cellphone and click the images of  small tulsi plant at my home. I don't know why but I loved it, sometimes during rain the different formations of cloud or the water logged on the roads people trying cross them I used to capture all those moments. Trying  to click images with different angles, playing with the camera adding various effects to the pic I loved that all.
 Camera has changed a lot. The way it is used has also changed. Previously it was just used to click pictures and to capture those sad and happy moments spend with each other, but now sting operations are done with it ( khoooofia camera's that is what I call them ). It's also used as CCTV's, now camera's have become eyes for many.
 "Pehle sab kehete thae ki camera aap ki nazaron se chup nahii sakta (kyunki vo itne bade hote thae)
 par ab aap camere ki nazar se nahii chup saktey"
Because now camera's are everywhere, now the fashion or trend of those big camera's have gone and the small tiny-tiny camera's are in. Now you can find camera in pen, buttons and even on neck jewellery.
Though we all have seen the use of camera on television in the way of serials, movies but now there are many reality shows on television like Emotional Atayachaar, Axe ur Ex which are using the advance technology of camera for finding the hidden secretes and revealing them.
Some people are using this technology in right way but some are mis-using it.
Technology should always be used in the right way.
